Back reaction of vacuum and the renormalization group flow from the conformal fixed point

چکیده
Abstract. We consider the GUT-like model with two scalar fields which has infinitesimal deviation from the conformal invariant fixed point at high energy region. In this case the dominating quantum effect is the conformal trace anomaly and the interaction between the anomaly-generated propagating conformal factor of the metric and the usual dimensional scalar field. This interaction leads to the renormalization group flow from the conformal point. In the supersymmetric conformal invariant model such an effect produces a very weak violation of sypersymmetry at lower energies.

Metastable supersymmetry breaking vacua from conformal dynamics
We study the scenario that conformal dynamics leads to metastable supersymmetry breaking vacua. At a high energy scale, the superpotential is not R-symmetric, and has a supersymmetric minimum. However, conformal dynamics suppresses several operators along renormalization group flow toward the infrared fixed point. Then we can find an approximately R-symmetric superpotential, which has a metasta...
متن کاملAn Alternative to Exact Renormalization and Cosmological Solutions in String Theory
In this work we review the application of a functional method, serving as an alternative to the Wilsonian Exact Renormalization approach, to stringy bosonic σ-models with metric and dilaton backgrounds on a spherical world sheet [1]. We derive an exact evolution equation for the dilaton with the amplitude of quantum fluctuations, driven by the kinetic term of the two-dimensional world-sheet the...
متن کاملA Study of Holographic Renormalization Group Flows in d = 6 and d = 3
We present an explicit study of the holographic renormalization group (RG) in six dimensions using minimal gauged supergravity. By perturbing the theory with the addition of a relevant operator of dimension four one flows to a non-supersymmetric conformal fixed point. There are also solutions describing non-conformal vacua of the same theory obtained by giving an expectation value to the operat...
متن کاملSpectral Functions in Holographic Renormalization Group Flows
The spectrum of two-point functions in a holographic renormalization group flow from an ultraviolet (UV) to an infrared (IR) conformal fixed point is necessarily continuous. For a toy model, the spectral function does not only show the expected UV and IR behaviours, but other interesting features such as sharp peaks and oscillations in the UV. The spectral functions for the SU(3)×U(1) flow in A...
متن کاملThree-Dimensional CFTs and RG Flow from Squashing M2-Brane Horizon
Utilizing AdS/CFT correspondence in M-theory, an example of interacting d = 3 conformal field theories and renormalization group flow between them is presented. Near-horizon geometry of N coincident M2-branes located on a conical singularity on eight-dimensional hyperkähler manifold or manifold with Spin(7) holonomy is, in large-N limit, AdS4 ×X7, where X7 is seven-sphere with squashing. Deform...
